This sophisticated Mid Century Modern "floating" bench was realized in the United States circa 1950. It features splayed tapered legs- attached via rectangular cross slats- that connect to the cushions through four vertical cylindrical supports all in ebonized walnut. The raised construction of the bench provides it with a captivating "floating" effect. The seat has raised ends that extend outwards at a dramatic angle, imbuing these pieces with a dynamic and graphic silhouette- an aesthetic that is heightened by the geometric grisaille fabric. With its clean modernist lines and beautiful attention to detail, this bench would be a winning addition to any style of interior from classic Mid Century Modern to contemporary. It has been newly reupholstered and restored to mint condition.
